I'm in a Gothic-y autumnal kind of mood today. Expect lots of old leather bound tomes to hit the store this week. Not today though. Today is a Black Beauty day. I've had some lovely copies of Anna Sewell's classic in over the weekend so I'll be starting with those. I'll post to stories later. It's beautiful and sunny here to start the week. I hope it is with you too. Have a good Monday! #leatherbooks #oldbooksmell #oldbooksroom #librarygram #gothicaesthetic #bookpiles #bookgasm #antiquebookstore #etsybooks #bookstagrammer
I had a great time on my date last Saturday! I added some great books to my collection and enjoyed a delicious drink to kick off the evening. There's nothing quite like a good book stack to set the mood. #secondhandreaders #bookclub #pangobooks #prelovedbooks #bookstack #bookishlove #bookish #bookstore #books #booksbooksbooks #bookstagram #bookshelf #bookworm #bookishstore #ebay #booksbycolor #redbooks #oldbooks #oldbooksroom #oldbooksmell #booksandtea #booksanddrinks #drinksandbooks

I can’t believe it’s already been a year, and the @bibliotheca_rarebooks turned one year old! Thank you so much for everything, it means a lot to me that you like and follow my content! Lately, I have been less present, because I am working and doing my PhD studies at the same time, and I don’t have much time, but I will try to post more often so that you are not left without interesting stories and illustrations. Thanks again, you are the best! 💛Happy birthday @bibliotheca_rarebooks 🦉Illustration of ‘uhu’ or ‘bubo’ (in English, eagle-owl) of Adam Lonicer’s herbal from the end of the 16th century. According to Pliny, this bird has its name from the sound of its voice, it flees the light, lives in churches and drinks oil from the torch. #rareoldbooks #oldbookslover #oldbooksroom #rarebooks #booksillustration #owl #animalsillustration #engraving #bookstagram #16thcenturybooks #16thcentury #birthday #thankyou #birdsofinstagram #birdsillustration

🌹 Rose for Valentine’s Day Valentine’s Day, also called Saint Valentine’s Day originated as a Christian feast day honouring the Christian martyr named Saint Valentine. In Ancient Rome, Lupercalia, a pastoral festival was celebrated on the 13–15th February and was promoting health and fertility. Today red roses are often sent on Valentine’s Day. The rose is closely associated with Aphrodite, the goddess of love. 🌹 Hand-coloured illustration of a rose from the herbal of Matthiolus, a Renaissance Italian physician, printed in the 16th century. #oldbookslover #oldbooksroom #oldbooks #rareoldbooks #plantsillustration #botanicalart #botanicalillustration #rose #flowers #flowersillustration #16thcenturybooks #16thcentury #valentines #renaissance
It's Sunday and the sun is not too high, but it's warm after days and days of cold. I'm fine of course, but sometimes I'm taken by small moments of melancholy. Maybe because we have too much or too little? Anyway, I believe that a good meal, a good book and a backpack are the best things to feel good and to go on an adventure. Today is Sunday and as every Sunday, you can write ideas and inspirations for the next paintings below. Participate in large numbers! Have a great day Friends! #lohobbit #hobbitday #hobbitonmovieset #hobbithole #hobbiton #oldbooksmell #oldbookstore #oldbookpages #oldbooksroom #oldbookshops #oldbooksforsale #backpackersjournal #passportholder #daypack #adventurepic #adventure #adventureseeker #adventurealways

On this #throwbackthusday I figured I would take it back to my roots. Sarah Dessen was one of those authors that I always bought, always read. I think I read the majority of her books when I was younger, and now in my adult life I am re-reading them and catching up on some that I missed out on reading. Sarah Dessen had a way of writing that really spoke to me when I was younger, now? I am struggling through some of her books, I find I need to listen to them instead of reading them. I remember LOVING Dreamland when I was younger, this year I am counting it as a book that I have not read yet since it has been so long I honestly can't remember anything! Have you read any Sarah Dessen? Did you love her? Did you find her books hard to get through? Do you still read her books? Let me know in the comments below! #throwback #throwbackpic #reading #readinglist #readingtime #readingisfun #readingaddict #readingchallenge #old books #oldbooks #oldbookshop #oldbooksroom #oldbooksmell #sarahdessen #sarahdessenfan #sarahdessenbook #sarahdessenbooks #sarahdessennovels

Mulberry Square is my all-time favorite - I have read it hundreds of times - to escape with old friends I have cultivated through reading! An aging Victorian neighborhood in Rode Island is the center of this book with a doctor that serves the residents with charm, grace, and lots of love! You will enjoy his family, his two daughters, and a young man named Hugh - A love triangle - that keeps things interesting! 🥰😍💗 #oldbooks #oldbookshop #oldbooksmell #oldbookstore #oldbooksroom #oldbookshops #oldbooksmell #oldbookslover #oldbookstores #oldbooksforsale #oldbookssmellgood
I reread this book recently - I shake my head; things never really change regarding the human condition. Lee is so in love with Rickey, and we watch her grow and learn that Rickey is not all she thought he was - and good riddance! ❤❤❤ #oldbooks #oldbooks #oldbookshop #oldbooksmell #oldbookstore #oldbooksroom #oldbookshops #oldbooksmell #oldbookslover #oldbookstores #oldbooksforsale #oldbookssmellgood
Reposted from @secondhandreaders 1997, First Edition, William Morrow and Company The Runaway is the novel Terry Kay has wanted to write his entire career: the story of the earliest beginnings of desegregation in the South. Set in the 1940s and using as a springboard the relationship of two boys - one black and the other white - who have been mysteriously ordained at birth to spark the flames of change, The Runaway examines the joys, sorrows, conflicts, and racial disharmony of their historically biased environment. Tom and Son Jesus spend their days daydreaming, fishing, and trying to escape work. But their fun abruptly comes to a halt when they discover a bone during a fanciful runaway. The bone turns out to be part of the skeletal remains of Son Jesus' long-missing father, and leads to an investigation by Sheriff Frank Rucker, a World War II hero, that unmasks the racially motivated killer known only as Pegleg. The sheriff's findings divide the people of Overton County, forcing a surprising conclusion - or beginning - of justice. #secondhandreaders #terrykay #therunaway #williammorrowandcompany #novel #desegregation #boys #joy #sorrow #racial #worldwarii #hero #pegleg #overtoncounty #investigation #sheriff #justice #bookstagram #book #books #booksbooksbooks #prelovedbooks #bookish #bookishlife #bookishlove #bookworm #oldbooks #oldbooksroom #oldbookstore
